Sounds like time for a new drive.

Are we talking about a floppy disk or a CD?
Most floppies are pre-formatted when we get them.
In order to use a CD as a backup for data files, my two burners state that I have to use CD/RWs and they must be first formatted with the software that powers the burner. My Samsung uses Nero, my Dell uses DLA. Check your User's Guide.
I used to do this but now, with flashdrives, I no longer use CD/RWs.

The floppy disk has a write protect feature. If you move the tab on the disk to allow write does this work? If not then your floppy disk drive is broken and you need a new one.
